" Here's a column I wrote for the Irish Times last week on South Africa, for some other impressions." [[ t e c h n o c u l t u r e ]] Karlin Lillington's back from South Africa, and blogging again. Hooray! 10:36:13 AM

Procrastination I've meant to write about this for a while, but never seem to get around to it. Seriously, this is probably my Achilles' Heel (as an aside, check out the first use of the term Achilles' Heel in 1693. Pretty creepy.) Procrastination has stopped me from doing so many good things - that book and screenplay that just never makes it to the top of the to-do list; the business idea that needs a plan; the thank you cards from 2 years ago; the daily exercise I need; the wedding gift I need to send...the list goes on. Not to mention the paid work assignment I have for today. Procrastination is why I always functioned better with a coach. With a coach yelling at me, I get things done. I need someone shaming me into doing things on time, right now, in proper order - otherwise, it's easy to drift around and use the excuse "maybe tomorrow". Maybe later this week I'll find a coach... 7:59:18 AM
